The article considers the development of typological plot event in Arseny Tarkovsky’s lyrical poetry from his early works presented in the book «Guest-Star», to poems written in 1950-60s, making the collection «Before Snowing». Particular attention is paid to the correlation of plot event and spatial model of the world which refl ects the acquired emotional and mental experience and actualises ideas about the essence of interaction of the world and man. In Arseny Tarkovsky’s poems of 1930-40s, the spatial model of the world is presented as a correlation of «centre» and «periphery» («home» and outside world) which actualises the opposition of life as such and refl ective consciousness of the poet alienated from external existence. In lyrical poetry of 1950-60s, the development of the spatial model takes place which is connected with refusal from truths of the highest order and an attempt of justifi cation of the value of the world of men. At fi rst Arseny Tarkovsky represented such model as a fl oral vertical which has anthropomorphic features – Tree of World. The plot event is the refl ection on the essence of this spatial model and awareness of its defi ciencies – it reveals its ambivalence combining elevated and low images of the world and in consciousness it alienates from living life with its «noxiousness». The result of the evolution of the plot event in Arseny Tarkovsky’s lyrical poetry of 1930-60s is confi rmation of incomprehensibility and mystique of life and also refusal from absolute knowledge and transfer of meaningfulness of creativity to preservation of “root relationship” between man and world of men.

This article develops a spatial model of internal and external forced migration. We propose a model reminiscent of Hotelling’s spatial model in economics and Schelling’s model of segregation. Conflict is modeled as a shock that hits a country at certain location and generates displacement of people located near the shock’s location. Some displaced people cross a border, thus becoming refugees, while others remain as Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). The model delivers predictions about how the fractions of a country’s population that become refugees and IDPs ought to be related with the intensity of the shock, country size, terrain ruggedness and the degree of geographical proximity of the country with respect to the rest of the world. The predictions of the model are then tested against real data using a panel of 161 countries covering the period 1995-2016. The empirical evidence is mostly in line with the predictions of the model.

The article is an analysis of the poetry of Gisella Lachman (1895–1969), poet of the “first wave” of Russian emigration, from the perspective of the poetics of space. The poet expressed her emigration experience (multiple changes of residence: Russia, Germany, Switzerland, USA) in her poems in spatial relations. They appear on different levels of the works’ morphology: in the construction of the lyrical “I”, in the organisation of the presented world, in the repertoire of motifs and the selection of poetic lexis and genre forms. Space plays a literal role in Lachman’s poetry; it is a representation of extra-literary reality, seen subjectively. It is also subject to metaphorisation, becoming a tool for expressing philosophical content. The poet creates not only a spatial model of the world, but also a spatial model of human life, which she perceives as a transit on the road to eternity.

Although Stefan George's unyielding protest against the contemporary theatre lasted from the time of his graduation from the Ludwig-Georg Gymnasium in Darmstadt (1888) until his death, his hopes for its reform and his gradual disillusionment are generally little known, since his sphere of influence was restricted to the realm of lyrical poetry. This limitation was apparently both natural and logical for George, whose peculiar genius was that of the lyricist. But it was not entirely voluntary at first, for in his formative years he had been fascinated by the world of the theatre.

The article deals with metaphors of disease in selected contemporary Polish female poets. In focus are the portrayals of disease, its symptoms and consequences for the imperfect human body. The anthropological perspective assumed in this study, which reveals the coding of human experience in a literary work, emphasises the connections between the poetics of the work and the problem of defining individual identity. The analysis leads to the following conclusions: the poets (both in lyrical poetry and other intimist writing) usually relate to conceptual metaphors motivated by the notions of object and containment (e.g. life is a container, body is an object, body is a container); other recognizable metaphors are orientational (wpaść w wilczy dół ‘fall into the pitfall’) or grounded in the notion of fire (czuję się spalona ‘I feel consumed by flames’). By modifying classic metaphors, the poets construct new cognitive perspectives. They express the feeling of isolation from the world of the healthy and the fragility of the human body as a material “prison house”. They also make attempts to regain control over it by extending the boundaries of intimacy. By studying the esthetic and epistemological aspects of metaphors in connection with an understanding of self in a situation of irreversible loss of full physical control, of fear and of bold expansion of one’s corporality, it is possible to identify individual and cultural grounding of corporality.

Practical Instrument

It is easy to mistake one’s beliefs about the world as absolute knowledge. In this paper, I argue that any view of knowledge as absolute, or objective, is a misrepresentation of the limits of human understanding. In contrast, I argue for the pragmatic use of truth as conceived by William James. I contend that if one views truth as a practical instrument valued solely for its ability to help humans, one can place scientific and religious beliefs on equal footing. By valuing truth for its practical effects, one may return truth to its intended function: to be one’s closest ally in overcoming life’s challenges.

Self System

In the article the features of the interrelationship between the self-system and the subjective (mental) experience of unbalanced states are considered. Correlations between the self-system’s characteristics and affective, cognitive, physiological and behavioral indicators of the perceptual, semantic, conceptual layers of the subjective experience of mental states are established. The connections are most pronounced for the states with extreme level of mental activity: excitement, rage, fatigue and loneliness. Indicators of the attitudes to oneself and to the world are more closely related to the perceptual and semantic layers of subjective (mental) experience.

Intellectual Potential

Cognitive experience is one of the substructures of mental experience, which gained a lot of interest recently due to the understanding that the intellectual potential of people is the basis for the progressive development of society. Usually, the concept of experience is addressed during the analysis (or characterization) of mature forms of intelligence. Experience from a peripheral object turns into one of the basic categories of psychology and in difficult conditions of activity can act as a source of knowledge based on the mechanism of intuition. A modern understanding of developmental psychology has shown that the infant is already endowed with the ability to structure and organize the world, and without reliance on its unconscious constructs, it is difficult to understand the development of thinking and the human intellectual sphere. The features of the organization of the cognitive experience of preschoolers based on the model of intelligence where in its hierarchical structure cognitive experience acts as the initial level, over which two others are then built up — metacognitive and intentional, which characterize the structure of intelligence as a whole.
